Actor Kellan Lutz, known for his role in the Twilight movies, A Nightmare On Elm Street and his upcoming role in Immortals opened up in the latest issue of the Advocate about his love for the gays.
Oh, they’re the best. I love them. When I meet gay fans out and about, they’re so great to talk to — and I’m big on hugging, because I’m from the Midwest. They’re just so energetic and loving. I’m proud to have those fans, and their support means a lot to me. I don’t want just girls coming to my movies; I want guys to come too.
He also discussed the one time a guy hit on him at a spa when he was naked in a hot tub:
We talked for about 15 minutes, and it clicked that he was probably hitting on me. By no means did I want to lead him on, so it was just kind of funny to me to realize that he was hitting on me — and doing a pretty good job.
He also describes the moment his 'gaydar' turned on:
Growing up, I could never tell who was gay. Even in high school, I had friends that I didn’t know were gay until years later. I’d find out on Facebook or something and be like, “Oh, that explains some things,” or “Wow, no wonder they were so cool.” I remember going to a buddy’s house right when I came to L.A. He was showing me his place, and I asked, “Where do you sleep?” He’s like, “Here, in this bed.” He had a roommate, so I was like, “Where does your roommate sleep?” He said, “He sleeps here too.” I was like, “Oh, OK.” I’ve slept in the same bed as my brothers, and I’ve crashed on a friend’s bed, so it did not even cross my mind that they were gay. He called me up after I left his house and said, “Kellan, you handled that so well. I haven’t told many people, so thanks for being such a good person.” Suddenly, all this stuff started clicking, and everything made sense: Some guys I thought were just friends aren’t just friends! That’s the day my gaydar finally kicked in. We’re still the best of friends to this day. Now I have some really close friends who are gay.
He also said that he only prefers to live with gay guys over others (does that include you on again, off again girlfriend AnnaLynne McCord?)
I’d prefer to live with gay guys. They’re the cleanest, and they just take care of stuff. Because I’m always away, coming home to a clean house means a lot to me.
I always thought Kellan was hot, and I love when there are actors out there who will acknowledge their gays fans who love them, and don't give insecure attitude like some people I know. His comments about the gays and the fact that he is a straight guy who isn't threatened to be around other guys into guys makes me like him even more, and I could definitely channel my inner Bree Van De Camp if need be. Can't wait to see his new movie since most of the actors will be practically naked.
